and set after which, the CS121 can be changed from AUTO to the given
speed, "100half" for example.
• Email client: The CS121 adapters incorporate a built-in SMTP email-client, which is able to
send emails automatically in the event of an alarm.
• Web server: The CS121 Models contain a web-server, which displays all functions and
settings of the adapter. Non-Windows users may use the JAVAMON as graphically display for
UPS data (The JAVAMON module is not implemented in all versions.). Generally the CS121
Webserver is designed for the use with MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER 6 with Active X
and is recommended as configuration and management interface.
1.2 About the communication with the CS121-Adapter
• MODBUS
Modbus is the de facto standard protocol in industry which is used in the building surveillance
and facility management. All CS121 types include an MODBUS over IP interface and
MODBUS over RS232. The CS121 MODBUS types do not have an RS232 interface at COM2,
here they use an RS485 interface. The CS121 BUDGET series does not support MODBUS.
Please see the appendix where also output and protocol interface are shown.
• SNMP
The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is the Internet-standard protocol for
managing devices on IP networks and is defined and standardized in Requests for Comments
(RFCs)-specifications. UPS systems are using in generally as Management Information Base
(MIB) the RFC1628-specification which defines UPS-specific devices.
The CS121 also comes with the standard MIB RFC1628. Because of this MIB is already part
of most SNMP software products, it is not required to compile the MIB (Please search the
MIB2 directory tree for a “UPS-MIB”). If you want to include your CS121-adapter to an SNMP-
Management station, which does not have the standard MIB RFC1628, you can download the
specific MIB from our website. (http://www.generex.de/e/download/cs12x/download_p.html)
Copy the MIB file to the appropriate MIB-directory of your SNMP-station and compile this file.
In most cases your SNMP already has implemented this MIB and a compilation is only
necessary if you want to read extra information than just UPS (e.g. for SENSORMANAGER,
etc.)
For additional information about MIB and NMS see also the section “UNMS” later on in this
manual.
For the CS121-SNMP MIB Implementation, please refer to the GENEREX download-page
http://www.generex.de/e/download/cs12x/download_p.html
This MIB is specially designed for the CS121 and includes SNMP values for all CS121 optional
products (Temperature, humidity, alarm contacts, etc.) Basicly this RFC1628CS121.MIB is the
original UPS MIB, extended by extra values supported from your CS121.
• TCP
Most common way to communicate with the CS121-adapter is over TCP. CS121 includes
UPSTCP, with gives you a complete interface to integrate the adapter into your network.
1.3 The CS121 Adapter Package
The standard CS121-adapter package contains an SNMP-adapter unit with supporting
hardware and software. (Note, that the Budget-models do not have all features.)
Optional is a mounting kit for wall and DIN Rail mounting.
